Adebanji , Yes I do, but I feel like I haven't yet taken them to my limit. in terms of strokes style with them. On a side note they seem to eat my paper if I go over an area more than ounce, does that happen for you also ?

Whew, Dominique..great to have a bit of good Internet service. It looks like you have really been busy while I have been country-hopping...It looks great. Magnolias are such nice subjects..my Mom's favorite. I really thank you for your dear and encouraging comments while I've been in limbo...it means a lot to me.
